The jagged Manhattan skyline, Cubism's fractured forms, the linear designs of Frank Lloyd Wright: all fueled the imagination of artist John Storrs, best known for his sculptures in metal and stone. He's the subject of an intimate show at the Grey Art Gallery at New York University, where some 40 sculptures, paintings, and drawings are on view. Among the striking works are two 1928 studies of the goddess Ceres—one on paper, one nickel-plated terracotta—which served as models for a 31-foot-high finial atop the Chicago Board of Trade building. His 1920 Study for Auto Tower (Industrial Forms) reveals a sense of whimsy: It looks like a stylized car turned on end, complete with its spinning wheel. But set against the New York backdrop, the Art Deco–style skyscraper pieces, crafted in gleaming copper, brass, and steel, stand out as the most evocative—our soaring icons brought down to human scale.
